This book hasn't aged well and is even more problematic than I remembered. It's an emotional read but impossible to look past the raging ableism and saviorism.

I loved the story and the character development, but I feel that the blatant ableism and harmful mindsets portrayed in this book dampened a story that could've and should've been much more emotional and impactful than it was.
